Abstract |
This paper is a review of the effects of grief and loss on school-aged children and adolescents as well as the lack of teacher training for dealing with their student's symptoms of grief and loss in the classroom. Additionally, the study includes an explanation of the nature of the problem and why this study is valuable to the development of grief and loss training. The literature review is broken down into a review of the research on loss, grief, bereavement, and mourning. Next, a brief assessment of the ways children process death is included, as well as the possible consequences of childhood loss, including psychological, emotional, and physical problems. School responses to student grief as well as effects on teachers is examined. Data was gathered using interviews conducted with three teachers. A brief synopsis of the themes that emerged from the data is presented, giving their experiences with students in their classrooms due to COVID-19, as well as their perspectives of grief and loss training. Finally, this paper includes a discussion of the importance of providing teachers with basic training on how to deal with students who are experiencing grief and loss in their lives. |
